Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A post Medieval cast lead alloy token of 25.17mm diameter. One side has a six pointed star / hexafoil, the other has initials IC with a decorative curlicue below and poorly formed and barely legible letters or numbers above. These may comprise a date, possibly reading 1667/1697. Alternatively, this design could be retrograde (which would happen if the maker didn't incise the letters into the mould in the reverse orientation) and the date could have been intended for the lower edge and possibly reading 1703 (second image, which is reversed).
